According
to NASA two special things happen February 24; 1)
a kind of a triple conjunction of Saturn's moons
with Saturn, not that in astrology we work with
that, for Saturn and its Moons is one energyfield,
much like the Earth and our Moon... and 2) comet
Lulin is closest to Earth February 24 and in the
vicinity of the Sun: http://spaceweather.com/comets/gallery_lulin_page8.htm
Astrologically
there is a Mercury-Jupiter conjunction in Aquarius,
which indeed can bring exciting news. This month
is kind of special anyway with all the Aquarian planets
and both individually and collectively we are
discovering things!
Science
and Sugar:
Science
& sugar? Oh well, it's just to take an example.
Is it possible to proof scientifically that sugar
tastes sweet? That question has been occupying my
mind for a few days now because there are plenty
of astrologers who apparently still seek
scientific approval (acknowledgement) of science.
But astrology is somewhat akin to things tasting
sweet. So to speak. Science has the idea that
singling out a factor of the entire composition of
the horoscope should do, maybe they use just the
12 sunsigns, maybe just the planets, without ever
looking at the houses, or rulers of the houses.
Let's take the 6th house as an example (Koch)
which says something about how we work on a daily
basis. Isn't it terrific to just plainly see
that folks with Taurus on its cusp just plod on
and on and that someone with Aries on its cusp
can't muster the patience doing the same work day
in and out, and that someone with Libra on its
cusp loves to cooperate? And that this is so for
each and everyone if however we finetune using the
rulers of the cusp. Someone who does not plod on
and on in their work with Taurus on the 6th house
cusp may have its ruler conjunct Uranus: it just
is a next level of interpretation. For
astrologers it is as clear as glass, it simply
works and inspires awe.
But
if science occupies itself with a cube of sugar,
it will analyse it as consisting of sucrose,
lactose and fructose. But it can't proof that
sugar tastes sweet as this is human interpretation.
Only by tasting sugar yourself you can truly find
out that sugar tastes sweet.
Conclusion:
the analytical scientific method just is improper
and fails where human experience is concerned.
Uranus currently opposes Saturn. I wouldn't mind
if we as astrologers were to say a definite
goodbye to the urge of being recognized by "science".
What good is our current science if it can't even
proof that sugar tastes sweet?
